Loft Conversion
Construction

Converting unused loft space into a living or storage area - a practical way to maximise the space in your property without extending outward, across Surrey, Berkshire and London.

What It Is

Turning Dead Space Into Living Space

Converting unused loft space into a living area or storage space is a practical way to maximise the space in your property. It allows you to transform dead space into a usable and valuable area, adding functionality and potentially increasing the property’s value - a well-executed loft conversion can make the property more appealing to potential buyers, making it a smart investment in the long run.

This method of converting lofts is especially beneficial for those who don’t have the option to extend outward but can utilise the vertical space by going up, creating additional living space within the existing property.

The Process

How We Build Your Loft Conversion

Each step is crucial to ensure a safe, structurally sound and functional loft space.

01

Initial demolition. Strip roof tiles, remove the existing timber structure, tidy the loft area, remove old insulation if applicable, and dispose of waste.

02

Preparation for steels. Mark steel locations and install mild steel spreader plates ready for the steels to bear onto.

03

Steel installation. Cordon off the road area, crane the steels up to scaffolding height and install via laser precision for millimetre accuracy.

04

Floors & dormers. Install new timber floor joists within the steel beams and construct dormers protruding from the roof area, if applicable.

05

Insulation & sub floor. Sheath the exterior of dormers, form internal structures, insulate floors, install sub floor and PIR insulation within the new dormer structure.

06

Staircase installation. Dust sheeting laid to the existing first floor area, door edges taped, and the existing ceiling broken through to install the new staircase.
